Y-29.Silky Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 Just an idea for those who have a server up, a really fun idea...
coconut Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 It's going to be a slaughter, if I'm to believe my short encounters with any fighter while flying the P40. Throw in a few I16s and it might work. Let the ishaks distract the Italians (or even shoot them down), do a couple passes with the P40 and then fly away once you fall below 1000m altitude.

I don't think you've been flying the P-40 enough lol. It's a good competitor to the 202.

I'll give it a try against the AI this evening and see how it goes. Also good to know: there seems to be a bug with "warmed up engine" off (the auto-prop-pitch control leaves the RPM stuck at 2600+RPM). I burnt a few engines because of that.
coconut Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 (edited) That might work well, actually. The fight session against the AI wasn't too hard, but then, it was just AIs... Even then, I expected a much more imbalanced fight than it turned out to be. The P40 seems to turn and roll rather well. Human players in P40 will also have a much better rear visibility.

Cybermat47 Posted December 4, 2015 Posted December 4, 2015 Perhaps someone could mod in desert textures?
coconut Posted December 4, 2015 Posted December 4, 2015 Perhaps someone could mod in desert textures? Stalingrad summer will have to do... It's on 'Coconuts duel P40-Mc202'. There's a couple AI flight on each side to give you something to shoot at while waiting for company. IL-2 + I-16 on the Russian side, Bf110 + Bf109-e7 on the other other side. The AI Bf110 suprised me with its aggressiveness. Didn't expect it to dogfight me, but it did, and its rather scary to see this monster get on your six.
